Will it be a slayer or scare them away.
I have always got a lot of injoyment out of making a lot of my own tackle.
This will be on the end of my line for my first casts tomorrow. Nothing like putting the pressure on me for it's maiden swim. I hope to add a picture of it in the mouth of an angry Chinook. I probably should tie up a backup in case I lose this one.

I did catch a Chinook recently out in the Ocean on one of my own creations.
To all you tackle crafters out there tight lines this fall.

It looks good to me. The only thing I don't like about the barbell jig heads is that they tend to lay on their sides if your line isn't 90 degrees to the eye of the jig. However, I did catch a 40+ pounder in tidewater with one I made that was very similiar to yours! Good luck out there. Its a very exciting time to be fishing right now.

That's hard to say because I havn't purchased many supplies recently.
I picked up most of my supplies when the price was right (Cheap). I have several hundred of the old inline blades in three sizes that I'm not sure you can get anymore.
I did buy the skirts for 3.99 for a 5 pac at fishermans and the eyes at Michaels for about 3 or 4 bucks for a couple hundred.
I would think you should be able to build it for 3 to 4 bucks

Yea, you better tie up another for a spare. Those are fish killers. Some of my best Fall Chinook days have been on large barbell jigs.

I did tie up a few more today. Mark you are the one that taught me at a Steelheaders jig tieing get together years ago. I caught a nice winter steel on the barbell jig I tied that day. And if I remember right it was on my first cast with it.
Thanks again Mark
And if mine dosn't get the job done I have your Quad jig as a backup.
